Recover iPad videos with Enigma Recovery software
Creating home-made videos was once something restricted to a purpose-built, expensive video-recording camera.
But with the introduction of smartphone and tablet devices, that is no longer the case. A tablet device such as
an iPad, for example, is advanced enough to capture high quality footage ready for immediate distribution. As a
result, the popularity of videos – for both creating and viewing – has soared dramatically.
And so too has the value placed upon them, with most devices now containing gigabytes worth of footage which
users will no doubt dread the idea of losing.
But unfortunately, the risks – and consequences! – of unexpected data loss on such devices, are all too high to
ignore. Be it by the accidental tap of a finger or a software malfunction out of your control, there are
numerous ways in which you can experience content deletion. And most users when faced with such an unfortunate
incident, will automatically assume everything is permanently gone.
Technology has rapidly improved to the point where a single device, such as an iPad, can be used for multiple
purposes. One area, in particular, which has seen a dramatic rise is the ability to film video footage. It’s
quickly become one the most popular mediums for creating, viewing and publishing content – be it on websites,
social media or privately amongst friends. Memories are easily captured and stored and you can find yourself
accumulating a large bank of video content on your iPad. But what happens when some of that content is
accidentally deleted?

your iPad to an iTunes backup file, Enigma Recovery can help retrieve images that would have since been

How to Transfer Lost or Deleted iPad Videos to Your Mac or PC
Video-recording capabilities have drastically improved in recent years, to the point where hi-definition
footage in 4k quality can be captured on a smartphone or tablet device. This is then further matched by the

platforms such as Facebook or YouTube. Our fascination with videos has encouraged us to create huge
libraries of content which, if suddenly lost, would create a lot of distress.

can be created and stored, is further matched by the opportunities to share them – be it through Facebook,
